Come one, come all, to an evening of fine beer, delicious dining, and a side of murderous mayhem! Plethos Productions presents “Summer of Peace, Love, and Murder.” For this interactive Murder Mystery Dinner, immerse yourself in the vibrant 1960s hippie culture. Slip into your best bohemian attire and join the Children of Sunflowers, a diverse group of passionate activists, at their sit-in protest at Drake’s Barrel House.
If you believe in love, nature, and the power of the collective voice of the community, you’re in the right place. The Children of Sunflowers are taking a stand against the impending destruction of Broakland’s largest community park by the mega tech corporation Nexus, which plans to build their second headquarters there. But amidst the peace and love, a dark deed awaits…
Among the colorful protesters are passionate activists with deep motives and tangled relationships. Indigo, the charismatic leader, drives the group’s fervor against nuclear power, while Zephyr, the psychedelic percussionist, adds tension with their erratic behavior and paranoid theories. Juniper, the dedicated arborist, is desperate to save a nearly extinct tree species, and Kai, the fiery community organizer, advocates for radical action. Adelaide Pendleton, or Rain, finds herself torn between her activist friends and her powerful CEO parent, Natasha Pendleton, whose career hinges on the success of the new headquarters. The mix of personal vendettas, secret relationships, and high stakes creates a perfect storm for murder.
Audiences get to interrogate suspects while enjoying delicious dinner and fine beer from Drake’s Barrel House. Piece together the truth by finding clues, uncovering weapons, and puzzling out motives–you’re the star of this show as you try to answer the age-old question: whodunit? Prizes will be awarded to the sharpest investigators who solve the crime, and don’t miss your chance to compete for the best-dressed in our 1960s hippie-themed costume contest!
